Lefkowitz v. Newsome 420 U.S. 283 (1975) is a US Supreme Court case which held that when state law permits a defendant to plead guilty without giving up his right to judicial review of specified constitutional issues such as the lawfulness of a search or the voluntariness of a confession the defendant is not prevented from pursuing those constitutional claims in a federal habeas corpus proceeding.
